12 hours bus ride to mount Ararat - visiting a village next to the Turkey-Armenia border | EP07

My time in Eastern Turkey slowly approaches the end! This video is about my scenic bus ride and the beautiful village life in extreme far east of Turkey! I took a bus from Mardin and left for Ramazankent, a village just on the Turkey-Armenia border devided by the famous Aras river. The bus was slow but it was a scenic ride! Eastern Turkey is home to the Kurdish whereas it's overall less visited but still amazingly beautiful. Ramazankent is located on the foot of mount Ararat, the highest mountain of Turkey as well as the national Symbol of Armenia.

I am amazed that you would hitchhike in a country that you don't speak the language, to an area that is warned against traveling to by foreigners. Your video is very informative and exciting!

All they were eating is Armenian the Lavash apricote Bishi and the Tonir

Turkish dried apricots are the best in the world. And Turkish bread is so yummy 😋🌸 we can buy both products in my country NewZealand 😊🌸 But most of what we import comes from your country China 😁🌸

She asked what is this? The other girl responded it’s meat! Really?

[bertanelson]

Some of these Turkish people came to Washington State in USA where they set up a kitchen making wonderful apricot & apple candy. It is a premium "Turkish Delight" called Aplets & Cotlets. Located in Lake Chelan, a small town on a large, beautiful mountain lake. My favorite candy!

Dry apricot is very popular food in Arabic world.
